I agree that 'bytecode_instructions' is a long-winded.  FWIW, I
have worked on or with a fair amount instruction level things and
"instruction" or "instr" seem to be the established domain terminology.

Here are a few examples:

* Java ASM - http://asm.ow2.org/asm33/javadoc/user/index.html
   - Classes named 'InsnList', 'InsnNode'
* PyPy - https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/default/pypy/interpreter/astcompiler/assemble.py
   - class named 'Instruction'
* Python - http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/a06ef7ab7321/Python/compile.c#l45
   - struct named 'instr'
* binutils - http://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils.git;a=tree
   - structs, variables, etc ... with use of 'insn' and 'instruction'
* gcc - http://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=tree
   - structs, variables, etc ... with use of 'insn' and 'instruction'
